Our stacks contain approximately 1,000 alphabetically filed subject boxes with topics from “Arts and Artists” to “Veteran Service”. We also house original property abstracts, cemetery records, Howell High School Yearbooks from 1905 to current, township records, plat maps, Civil War “brown books”, city directories and telephone books, and so much more.
